An Unwanted Guest
A perfect getaway to a beautiful, remote hotel turns deadly in this claustrophobic, pulse-pounding and unputdownable thriller from the No. 1 Sunday Times bestseller, Shari Lapena.
The Sunday Times bestseller from the author of the number one bestseller The Couple Next Door.
Tense. Unpredictable. Unputdownable. Shari Lapena's novels are domestic noir at its finest - Simon Kernick
We can't choose the strangers we meet.
As the guests arrive at beautiful, remote Mitchell's Inn, they're all looking forward to a relaxing weekend deep in the forest, miles from anywhere. They watch their fellow guests with interest, from a polite distance.
Usually, we can avoid the people who make us nervous, make us afraid.
With a violent storm raging, the group finds itself completely cut off from the outside world. Nobody can get in - or out. And then the first body is found... and the horrifying truth comes to light. There's a killer among them - and nowhere to run.
Until we find ourselves in a situation we can't escape. Trapped.
Praise for Shari Lapena:
Crafted like a vintage Christie and just as tense, this will be a smash hit - Heat
Smart characterisation combined with a subtle appreciation for the darkness of the human heart... A perfectly choreographed danse macabre - Mail on Sunday
Shari Lapena... is rapidly becoming a go-to author for anyone seeking a light but lip-smacking mystery - Sunday Express

An excellent mystery! Agatha Christie meets P D James - Ragnar Jonasson
